I"m guessing that the OP wasn't referring to the starting lineup, but actually seeing them all on the court together. But like you said - starters will be Moriah, Kiah, Morgan and Stewie. The 5th spot is still up for grabs and there have been numerous threads on it this summer.It's hard for me to see not playing Nurse. I think Collier have the potential to be a super sub on the UConn team this season. Or KLS could be instant offense of the bench.
I think we will see the OP's lineup on the court at times earlier than midseason
Your guess is correct, it not my prediction for a starting lineup, I am just anxious to see them on the court together. They might be on the court together early in the season but I want to see them after the frosh gets more practice/playing time.I"m guessing that the OP wasn't referring to the starting lineup, but actually seeing them all on the court together.

My bet for the 5th starter would be (in order of likelihood IMHO) - Butler, Williams, Collier, Samuelson. IF Gabby has improved her ball handling and mid range shooting, I could see her as the 2nd choice. If not, she would slide down IMHO behind the 2 freshmen. She needs to have noticeably better guard skills to be really considered for the starting lineup.
Even if Chong has improved by miles, I don't see her as a starter - she's really the only guard on the bench in my example who can play the 1.
For the record, I hope she has improved by miles and plays "like a starter".
Anyway, I sort of digressed a bit. I think we will see the OP's lineup on the court at times earlier than midseason - I bet Geno tries mixing up lineups to see how effective the team can be with different players out there.
That would be pretty rough to watch actually. Geno said last year that he has to keep at least one starter in the game at all times. I suspect that will still hold true this year.Chong, Williams, KLS, Collier, Ekmark with Boykin coming off the bench with Pulido and Lawlor in reserve. I'd love to see that lineup play against some of the weaker AAC teams.
So you want a line up with Collier. KLS, Briana Pulido, MoJeff, and Stewie? I don't like the idea of Stewie playing center and KLS playing PF. I think you may very well see this lineup on "Senior Night".Sometime in late December, after the Freshmen get some experience, I wold like to see Collier and KLS on the court with the three seniors. That should be an awesome display of speed, firepower, and defense.
How is that a problem?This years team is very deep but as my brother once told me. It doesn't matter who starts, it is who finishes when the game is on the line. Only problem with that is I can't see more than 3 or 4 close games in the regular season.
Nurse played great last year on a NC team, HER freshman year, and then was MVP in an international tournament where she scored 33 points against much older players and you would like to replace her with a freshman who hasn't played one minute of D1 ball? I'm sure that will help our Huskies!Sometime in late December, after the Freshmen get some experience, I wold like to see Collier and KLS on the court with the three seniors.

No, my mistake I was thinking of Tuck as being a senior, forgot she is a redshirt junior. So the group I would like to see is: 1=MoJeff, 2=Collier, 3=KLS, 4=Stewie, and 5=Tuck.So you want a line up with Collier. KLS, Briana Pulido, MoJeff, and Stewie?

I knew that already. Just having fun at your expense. I'll like to see this line up also.No, my mistake I was thinking of Tuck as being a senior, forgot she is a redshirt junior. So the group I would like to see is: 1=MoJeff, 2=Collier, 3=KLS, 4=Stewie, and 5=Tuck.
Closer to 30. Easily a top 10 team.Geno's 2nd team: Boykin, Samuelson, Collier, Williams & Chong. This team would be competitive and win 20 games. If Samuelson or Collier start in lieu of Butler it would still be a winning team.
This five will beat almost any team, no doubt....No, my mistake I was thinking of Tuck as being a senior, forgot she is a redshirt junior. So the group I would like to see is: 1=MoJeff, 2=Collier, 3=KLS, 4=Stewie, and 5=Tuck.
Probably right. Next year Tuck is going to have to play the 4 spot vacated by Stewie, so the 3 will have to be KLS. I think KLS could ultimately be a more versatile KML - similar in ability to play anywhere on the floor like Stewie due to shooting ability and height.Based on VERY limited clips of practices, it appeared to me that Lou is being slotted as a perimeter player, not front court.
Or Collier, or Gabby, or Tuck, or Boykin if we happen to sign Cox. IMO unless we sign another SG then KLS will stat at SG in 16-17 season.Probably right. Next year Tuck is going to have to play the 4 spot vacated by Stewie, so the 3 will have to be KLS.
If you're going to play the 3, I think you have to be able to shoot the 3. We know KLS can, at least based on her high school experience. Tuck hopefully can become more consistent at it, but Gabby cannot unless she has some kind of shooting epiphany, and I don't think Collier or Boykin are as prolific at it as KLS.Or Collier, or Gabby, or Tuck, or Boykin if we happen to sign Cox. IMO unless we sign another SG then KLS will stat at SG in 16-17 season.
